Who will notice? Microsoft hasn't provided support for a product since Windows 95. I remember that clearly, since my disk 13 was defective and wouldn't finish the installation. I called Microsoft, a person answered, and my problem was fixed. That's the last time that's happened.

Life does imitate art (?) ... even if the ersatz has a surreal top-note: [^]In an unexpected outcome akin to an ancient Greek fable, a tortoise beat a rabbit, with the shelled reptile eventually claiming third place overall, the report said.
"Because the rabbit loved jumping and didn't follow its owner's commands, it was overtaken by the tortoise," it said. Of course protests will soon ensue: [^].
The burning question is, of course: will FOG (Friends of Goldfish) adopt the topless strategies of PETA and FEMEN.

If we are crazy, I am sure it is only because we have been driven crazy by the insanity that passes for common normalcy and our involuntary addiction to that most powerful of hallucinogens, "rationality." !
On the other hand, as Saint Salvador (Dali) once said: "the only man who is not a crazy man is ... Dali." Indicating we are grandfathered-in, as it were; after all, who could we be to dare argue with Him ?
Shall we not aspire to the zenith of highest crazy metaphorized in Saint Salvador's wonderful credo:
"Every morning when I wake up, I feel an exquisite sense of joy – the joy of being Salvador Dali. And I ask myself, in a sort of rapture, what wonderful thing will he create today, this Salvador Dali. And as every day passes, I find it harder and harder to understand how other people can possibly bear to exist without being Salvador Dali."

I've been to a couple of Dali exhibitions over the years, and each time I am more impressed with the man: he produced some of my favorite artworks.

So the story as far as I can distil it is a bloke ski-faster than another bloke, while carrying a tortoise due to other bloke having to herd a wabbit! Umm okay that's about the only time I've had the courage to look at the Bangkok times at work...

A female friend of mine had a T-shirt made "I caught crabs at Reuters" after one incident in the ladies.
Apparently.

It was broken long ago - the problem is that gin freezes at -26(C)!!!

|

Since it's continuosly moving (Nagy is the perfect gin-sink), gin never freezes in his house.

Gin moves towards Nagy. It is a perfect clockwork, you know.
